Do You Get Insulted When Someone You Consider Not in Your League Hits on You?

Um...why would you get insulted by someone who thinks you are attractive?

I agree. Now, I personally believe that when you find "the one" that you do so w/o regard to race, sex, religion, etc. BUT I know that I personally wouldn't seek out, say, a Wal-mart cashier to date. I prefer people that have equal education, goals, career, etc...but I don't look at a Wal-mart cashier and say "I'm out of his league, screw him." I believe the person is more important than the rest. ;)

What brings this subject up is that someone told me a story of this neighbor of hers who hit on her. She said the guy's in his 50s (she's 22) and lives with his sister. She told me that he's a huge drunk with so many DUIs that his liscence was taken away permantly. She's really upset (like steaming) and I laughed when she told me this which made her more angry.

But, now, your original post said that you also get upset when someone "not in your league" hits on you.

I don't think that people are 'not in my league', so no.

In fact when I read this question, my jaw just about dropped ... "Not in your league" ... and then I started laughing hysterically at the thought that people actually think this way of themselves ... that other people are not in their league ... and it just got funnier and funnier by the minute thinking of it :24:

I would not want to go out with or belong to 'a league of people' that thought that others were not in 'their league'. IMO if people think this way ... all it says about them is that they are superficial, self absorbed and that their priorities are screwed up and that they have a lot more to learn about what life is really about.

VERY WELL SAID!!! I couldn't have said it better myself. I also don't believe in "love at first sight" either...so assigning someone a "league" based on your initial impression of them is equally unbelievable in my book.

The only time I would get offended by someone hitting on me is if we had just met and they hit on me in a sexual manner. Even if that's all you're after, at least have the common courtesy to put some effort into it!!!

By "u people" you mean the author and the friend she was talking about, right??? I don't think anybody here agreed w/ the view.
 
Oh come the fuck on... Everyone has been creeped out or strayed away from somebody thats hit on them or ogled them at one time or another and you're lying if you say you haven't. Stop trying to be so correct and own up to your own insecurities.

Nope cant say I have, even if I dont find them attractive, it's still a compliment. It's only if they start stalking me I get creeped out.

Yes, but there's a difference in being creeped out or "not interested" and being INSULTED b/c someone dared to think they had the right to hit on you.

I think you're missing the point here...

I'm not creeped out by a girl who may hit on me that I don't find attractive. The point is that I don't think I'm Gods gift to human beings. There's a difference in not liking to be hit on by an ugly person and not liking to be hit on because you think you're better than them.

No one has ever actually hit on me, so I've never been in the situation, but I would be mad.

You're missing the point. How would you react if the "Wal-Mart cashier" did make a pass?

You know, most girls don't even know they are being hit on. I'm not sure if it's because 90% of guys just suck at it, or if females are just that oblivious. :cool
